“Bastard?” Qiao Nuan coldly repeated the words from Qiao Yu’s mouth, a dangerous sneer forming on its corners. “Qiao Yu, it seems that you haven’t learned your lesson. You don’t know what and what not to say.”

Qiao Nuan approached Qiao Yu one step after the other. After a while, Qiao Yu realized that she had pissed Qiao Nuan off. With a pale face, she retreated step by step until she had nowhere to retreat until her back was against the wall.

Qiao Yu begged with a trembling voice, “Sis, Sis, I didn’t mean it. Please spare me this time…”

“Spare you? You wish!”

Qiao Nuan grabbed Qiao Yu’s collar and slapped her. With a distinct crack, Qiao Yu’s nose, which had not fully recovered, shifted again.

The sharp pain hit Qiao Yu’snose as she reached out to touch it. She broke down and screamed, “Qiao Nuan!!! D*mn you!”

Qiao Nuan blinked and stared blankly at her weak hand. In fact, she just wanted to teach Qiao Yu a small lesson. She didn’t really want to break her nose. However, no one would believe her even if she explained.

Qiao Nuan simply allowed everyone to misunderstand. She snorted and looked at Qiao Yu’s nose with a half-smile. “It’s not illegal for a lunatic to hit people. Dear sister, I think you should know this fact, right?”

“Qiao Nuan, you did it on purpose, didn’t you?” Qiao Yu stared at Qiao Nuan with spite. The malice in her eyes was almost overflowing.

Qiao Nuan shrugged and pursed her lips. She said indifferently, “You can think whatever you want. If you think I did it on purpose, then I can’t deny it.”

Qiao Yu was so angry that her eyes were red. “Qiao Nuan! Brother Su He doesn’t want to break off your engagement. It makes you real proud, right? In the past, you were a fat pig. Now, you’re carrying a burden. You’ve never been liked by a man before, right?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? There shouldn’t be that many people who like me, okay?” Qiao Nuan felt a little guilty, but she thought she could not lose when it came to tenacity. “There are men chasing me from here all the way to Paris. Do you think everyone is like you? Only pining after Su He, that scumbag!”

Su He weakly raised his hand and explained, “Nuan Nuan, I’m not a scumbag…”

Qiao Yu seemed to have seen through Qiao Nuan’s feigned self-confidence and actually laughed. “Stop pretending, Qiao Nuan. Who would like a rude and stupid woman like you? Since you said that you have men chasing you from here to Frace, then you should simply find one!”

“Me, me, me!” Su He raised his hand enthusiastically. “I will definitely be the first!”

Obviously, Qiao Nuan and Qiao Yu did not take Su He’s words seriously.

Qiao Yu sneered and cackled maliciously, “You were indeed bragging just now, Qiao Nuan. How can a woman like you, who will never be liked by men, have the dignity to live in this world?”

Qiao Nuan clenched her fists and silently rolled up her sleeves, thinking ‘whatever’ to herself.

‘If I can’t beat you in an argument, why can’t I beat you in a fight?’ Moreover, why was Qiao Yu so annoying? Indeed, fists were the way to go!

Before Qiao Nuan could put her dangerous thoughts into action, she heard a series of knocks on the ward’s door. The next moment, the door was opened.

“I’m sorry, the hospital doesn’t allow noise.”

The doctor in the white coat was tall. His expression was not as gentle as the first time they met. Instead, there was a hint of seriousness, as if his heavy gaze swept across the people in the ward.

In the end, Huo Ting’s gaze stopped on Qiao Yu. “Miss, I’m sorry to have heard what you said. I think your opinion is a little biased. The value of a woman lies not in the number of men who pursue her, but how wonderful her life is.”

Then, Huo Ting looked at Qiao Nuan, and the corners of his mouth immediately curled into a faint smile. “Miss Qiao Nuan is outstanding enough. Her excellence has attracted the attention of many men. A woman like her naturally has no lack of suitors.”

Seeing the tall and handsome doctor, Qiao Yu originally had a good impression of him. However, after Huo Ting took the initiative to protect Qiao Nuan, the good impression in Qiao Yu’s heart disappeared.

She sneered coldly. “Doctor, the conflict between Qiao Nuan and I has nothing to do with you. Please don’t meddle in other people’s business.”

“I’m won’t be minding my own business.” Huo Ting shook his head and explained in a gentle voice, “In fact, I’m also one of the men who are in queue from here all the way to Paris. At a time like this, how could I allow you to slander Miss Qiao Nuan?”

As he spoke, Huo Ting’s gaze fell gently on Qiao Nuan. When he met Qiao Nuan’s confused look, Huo Ting actually mischievously winked at her.

It was as if he was saying, ‘don’t expose me.’

Qiao Nuan felt her heart skip a beat.

Qiao Yu, on the other hand, had a look of disbelief on her face. “You like Qiao Nuan?”

Huo Ting nodded. “Yes.”

“Are you blind too? Do you know what kind of person Qiao Nuan is? She is violent and stupid; who knows which man she has had a child with at such a young age.. Now, she’s even inherited her mother’s mental illness! Why do you all like such women?!”
